Ann Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 When it comes to kitchen duty, would you rather cook or clean up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gail p-m Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Neither -- I wish I could afford to go to restaurants all of the time! gail p-m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Hmmm.....when it come time to make it, I think cleaning up would be the better choice...........when it's time to clean up, I wish I hade MADE it instead ! What can I say ?!?!? Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 I would definitely rather cook than clean up. When I cook, I'm one of those people that somehow manages to get almost everything in the kitchen dirty. So, I hate to clean up, especially after I'm the one that's done the cooking...lol!!!

dchurchi Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I'm with Gail, neither. I would love to afford someone who would just come to do the cooking and cleaning up after. However, if I had to choose between the 2, I would rather clean up. Much less pressure for everything to be just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C. Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Ann, don't know how you do it but your questions always bring back memories of Mike. Loved to cook but Mike did all the cleaning after, he also cleaned his plate at each meal........ After we moved for Mike's treatments we ate out for lunch but for supper we found a gourmet restaurant that prepared meals for the busy executive (!!!) and we both enjoyed them a lot, so I still get those meals but now I have to do the clean up. Just a nice walk away from where I live. Will have to get rid of most of the cooking pots and pans when I move. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 Jackie...I hope all the memories I bring with my questions are very good ones that always make you smile... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilyjohn Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Boy I have done so much of both over the years. I would much rather cook especially for several people or more. As far as clean up I used to always do the dishes no matter where we ate or who cooked. I always said that was my penance for anything bad I ever did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginnyde Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Ok Ann, you have me stumped on this one. Not sure what either of those functions are. If pushed, I would rather cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryanne Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 CLEAN UP!! I would love to have someone wait on me. I would not mind cleaning up afterwards. Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyW Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Us professionals we always clean as we go so I am use dto doing it all myself and it keeps one from burning pots and pans. I can cook dineer and have all pots clean before I eat.. SO it does not matter to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I want to hire you at OUR house, Randy !!!! We have wonderful quarters upstairs AND I''m more than glad to share Teddy with you !!! Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 At our house the person that cooks does not have to clean up. Now that John is home he does most of the cooking so I do most of the cleaning up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welthy Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 On the rare occasions that I cook instead of dial, I clean as I go so there is no mess afterward to deal with. If you twisted my arm, I'd pick clean-up duty any day over cooking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debi Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I rarely have time to cook, but would take that option, since I actually enjoyed cooking once upon a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
